Thanks.

I had some serious issues with the XM software provided with the reciever. I ended up using xtremepcr for the time being until they integrate XM into Media Engine. I do however have to turn off the software before hibernating the system; if I don't the XM receiver mixes with the rest of the audio.

One thing I did notice is even in hibernate mode, the XM receiver's green LED stays on, regardless of the software mode.

no sub yet; whichever one I get will probably be pretty small due to space constraints.

I didn't know a miata went above 50mph.

this is getting dumb.

i deleted a few posts about his wing.. lets keep this clean and not flame about the look of his car. If you want to talk to him about why his wing won't work on a small car then PM him.

I feel this is a forum to show off the work.. not show it off to get flamed.

I don't think my post was flaming. I was explaining in why the wing wasn't necessary in a clear and concise manner.

It doesn't matter man. Everyone has there opinion and their right to it.

Seriously though, the wing DOES WORK! Coming from an engineering mind I was shocked as most people would that it actually changed the way the car handled. Especially between gear changes (with it being rear-wheel drive) and in high speed turns. I've had guys that do high-end custom work check it out and confirm the difference. When you actually think about the logistics behind it, it does make sense.

HiJinks21 is right though, it serves no purpose here. If you guys want to talk about it, PM me.

Yeah, but the only post he deleted was mine, which wasn't a flame, while he left the others making fun of the miata being slow alone. Which is pretty assy.

For those who talk trash about miatas, whats the most run car in SCCA? Booya.
